We all have hundreds of habits - many of which have built up over the years without realising it. It's therefore important to try and accumulate a few GOOD ones from time to time in order to compensate for all the BAD ones (especially when it comes to our health). This free Healthy Habits download, is a collection of 27 habits (3 for each Principles Behind Great Health) that can be printed off and stuck to the fridge door - or anywhere else it can be looked at for a minute or two everyday until the habit has been formed.
